Time to dig out the gauchos, zig zag knits and lace up boots again. Not that I ever need any encouragement, mind…

So that’s what gauchos are.
I like’em.
I always thought gauchos were the same as knickerbockers but I see the difference now.
Love how they coined the term ‘midi’ for length in those days. We don’t hear it anymore.
Much as I can’t really carry them off myself, I do love gouchos! (Check “The Best of Jackie” pages 15, 25 and 29 for some brilliant illustrations) They never really appeared again as “goucho pants” after 1970 did they??
